Drawing is a quick and graceful way to visualise your scenarios. When discussing complexity in our system, techniques which bring a voice to each stakeholder and break down user stories should be cherished.

We first heard about these ideas through Ulrika Malmgren at CukeUp! London last year. We chatted with Ulrika Malmgren about drawing and other techniques to bring teams closer together to build certain, coherent software.

Ulrika also tells us about her upcoming CukeUp! London talk, "Why Testers can be a Liability" happening next month. A talk with a contentious title is always a bonus. More information about CukeUp! can be found on the website - https://skillsmatter.com/conferences/7606-cukeup-2016#program

Tooky had to step out at the last moment so Aslak takes hosting duties with Matt Wynne alongside.
